Hey, anyone know if there's a Hungry Jacks around Toowong area?

If not, what would be the closest store? Got a craving for a bacon deluxe burger! yum

ha ha classic, i wouldnt have a clue.

did u end up thrashing the hire car though....lol

yeah there are wankers out there.

yesterday me and my g/f witnessed a 4wd with a bullbar smack into the back of this starlet. starlet drives round corner and pulls over, 4wd sits at intersection for a while, decides no damage to his ride so floors it and goes straight through intersection, we got the plates and caught up with the starlet to give them the details....farkin tossers, who does that? there was 3 of them in the 4wd too, in the middle of sunday arvo, its not like one guy at 2am and he thought noone would see it.. although i was the only one to help the starlet owner out by saying i saw what happened :) theres scum everywhere

Isaac do u have two cannons on your car?

nope bryn its a dual exit exhaust, a bit like the stocker as canons are fugly :) i was originally planning on adding another set on the other side of the car like a m5

When the avalon ran a red light and t boned me while driving dads car, Only one person stopped and he worked for qld department of transport,

the poeple behind me all just drove around me (the car took one and a hlaf months to be fixed by ford )

why would ford be fixing a car let alone an avalon ? :)

EDIT: ohh i get it ur dad drives a ford... sorry i'm whoring atm from my sickbed, already got tomorrow off -my crp and wcc is elevated, and the lymphocytes are pretty reactive :D about the only time working in my job pays off as i do blood tests on myself lol ) barely made it thru today and the parking incident was the last thing i needed :D

Yeah, i love dual exhaust systems they look clean as, like on the FPVs etc

yeah noone stops these days whats wrong with ppl? i admit i've seen accidents and not stopped to give details as a witness as ive been in a hurry on way to work etc.. if you can spare a few minutes its a massive help to ppl, i always think if i had an accident somone would help out :)

yeah,. i was driving my dads (brand new at the time) fairlane to go get him from the airport, and bam, i was about 2 minutes from home and wiped out :D

the guy driving claimed he say no red light, so i was hit at 60kms to the front on drivers side :( car was towed to morayfield, and then to southside at his expense, and 15 grand damage repair for the fairlane :)

i hope he didnt have insurance as he was a jerk

we arent all lab rats lol i dont have a clue what u are suffering from lol

bad case of dementia rofl

hey daz which part of the sun coast are you living in and whats it like , expensive? close to shops etc... i'm toying with the idea of moving up there :)

well i live in kawana, major shopping centre about 1min by car or 10 mins walk. (about 2km away)

housing is getting expensive but i live on beach side of nicklin way which is the major road running from maroochydore to caloundra.

kawna island is a quite new area only across the road from me and up a bit. every where is so acessable here, only 5 mins by car to maroochydore up motor way.

plus QML at buderim isnt far at all, i work in maroochydore not far from where u would work at, and it takes me 10 mins in traffic to work.

you could buy an older house like alot of ppl are doing and renovate it, seem to be the go up here.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
